Adding A Patient To The Department Queue

On the Department Queue Module, click the button.

There are two ways to add a patient:

by scanning the patient’s QR code

by registering a new patient, an existing patient, or a patient with a valid e-mail address.

If the patient already has a QMeUp on his/her smartphone, you can scan the patient’s QR code to add him/her to the queue. Click ‘Add Patient by QR Code’.

To add the patient by e-mail, click ‘Register and add patient’ on the submenu.

QMeUp Mobile has a ‘People I Care For’ feature wherein registered users may have multiple patients under their names. This is to cater the relatives or friends of QMeUp users who are incapable of having a QMeUp account. e.g. children, senior citizens
